The U.S. and U.K. are favored to host the Women’s World Cups in 2031 and 2035, which will see an increase in teams from 32 to 48. FIFA president Gianni Infantino confirmed the U.S. as the sole bidder for 2031, with a potential joint bid including Mexico. The U.K. is the only bidder for 2035, marking its first World Cup since 1966. Key figures, including English FA CEO Mark Bullingham, emphasize the importance of the bids in promoting women's football globally. The final decision on hosts is expected next year.
"We are honored to be the sole bidder for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2035. Hosting the first FIFA World Cup since 1966 with our home nations partners will be very special."
"The path is there for the Women's World Cup to be taking place in '31 and '35 in some great countries, to boost even more the women's football movement."
